Traders Drop Packers, 7-5
The Chicago Traders defeated the Cincinnati Packers by the score of 7-5, with the biggest share of the credit going to right fielder Ron Byrd. Byrd was 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Traders on the day. Sammy Mason was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 10 of 13 save opportunities. Chicago improves to 73-52 with the win. They lead their division by 2½ games.

John Seidler came through with a big-time hit for Chicago. The pinch hitter smacked a solo home run in the top of the seventh inning to give his team the lead, 6-5. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"We'll kick back a while," said Seidler, "and then get ready for the next one."
